Speaking at the ceremony, President Sang expressed his hope that the school’s teachers and students will try their best to gain excellent achievements to contribute more to the country.
The new school was built at a cost of VND117 billion (US$5.5 million) under the sponsor of the Lien Viet Post Bank.
Covering an area of more than 2.5 hectares, it comprises 43 classrooms, 19 others for particular purposes, one library, a kitchen area and a swimming pool.
On this occasion, President Sang presented scholarships, learning aid and gifts to the school’s needy students who have outstanding performance in their study and social policy beneficiaries.
Meanwhile, about 21.6 million Vietnamese students started the new academic year, with official ceremonies held across the country on September 5.
Party and State officials attended a number of the ceremonies throughout the nation, particularly in rural areas and ethnic minority communities.
Vietnam currently has more than 13,800 nursery schools, 15,300 primary schools, 10,800 junior high schools, and 2,700 senior high schools.
The 2014–2015 school year is considered particularly important since it will see the implementation of comprehensive educational reforms.
